Symposium: Hope in the Climate Crisis – Artificial Intelligence in the Context of Ecological Sustainability and Social Responsibility

What’s it about? The climate crisis is here and is already exacerbating economic and social inequalities on a global scale. Sustainable concepts to counteract  therefore reflect the most diverse scenarios and interactions and discuss the moment of responsibility of individuals and society also in science against the background of diverse value structures. Problem-solving that meets current challenges in a transdisciplinary and networked manner can be supported by Artificial Intelligence. These and further theses are to be discovered and discussed together with exciting guests at the event announced. More information is available here.
